Tehillim / Psalms - 2 Volume Set: A new translation with a commentary anthologized from Talmudic, Midrashic, and Rabbinic sources (English and Hebrew Edition) Hardcover –by Rabbi Avrohom Chaim Feuer (Translator) (ArtScroll, Mesorah Publications )
Excellent set. If you want a different view of the scriptures and a deeper understanding, I would not hesitate to purchase this set. You will learn much, but make sure you are open to learning. If you are not, then this is not for you. It is a wealth of knowledge at your finger tips, but be prepared to be engaged and challenged.
This anthology of commentary on the Psalms brings a potpourri of insights, a kind of condensed wisdom, to one's mind and soul. It is a pleasure to listen to the sages in this work.
The Hebrew and English languages with their contrary reading directions always make a problem. The pages move from right to left as in Hebrew, but the two columns on each page move from left to right; this gives the effect of leap-frogging--2 columns backward, if you will, and 4 columns forward.
Then there is the occasional typographical error. Still I love this set. It's the content, after all; and I appreciate the difficulties the editors must have faced in laying out the text.
